Prism 2 (Composite Application Guidance for WPF & Silverlight) migrated to Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2

As most of you might know, Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 was released some days ago. Ever since, many people have asked at the Prism codeplex forums if Prism works with this latest version. That’s why with Fer we decided to migrate Prism latest release for Silverlight 3 to VS 2010 Beta 2. Our conclusion after our smoke tests is that it does work .Migration StepsMigrated every solution.Ran the tests and smoke tested each application.Fixed any issues that appeared (mostly related to missing assembly reference...

A question we get asked frequently is: “How do I start learning Prism? Is there a particular order for the Quickstarts? What other web resources do you recommend to start learning?”. If you are in this situation, or just want to have some more insight on a particular Prism topic, this is the post for you (I always wanted to say that, just like TV announcements :))The basic question: “How do I start learning Prism?” The first thing you should do to start learning Prism (assuming you know WPF/Silverlight)...

Composite Application Guidance for WPF & SL (Prism-v2) C# Snippets with Guidance, Links and Tips

Most developers are familiar with code snippets. They are really useful while developing code, mainly because they make some of the most common developing tasks easier and faster, by making us just fill in a couple of blanks. This is great, but Julian had an idea that I believe will make the code snippets we created even more useful. He said: “What if we not only provide the code snippets, but we also add some guidance, links and tips based on our experience as Prism developers, that will help others wi... (more)

Prism-v2 Reference Implementation migrated to Silverlight 3 with Out-Of-Browser Capabilities

posted by dschenkelmandschenkelman 243 days, 21 hours, 33 minutes ago
Friday, July 10, 2009 8:23:52 PM GMT
Today I finally decided to blog about the Prism-v2 Silverlight reference implementation using Silverlight 3 Beta. In this post I will explain the process and some of the modifications I made to the application to use some of Silverlight’s new features and provide the outcoming source code. So after opening the RI with SL 3 installed the well known migration wizard appeared. The migration was a pretty straightforward process, and after less than a minute it finally succeeded and was ready for use.Not... (more)

Putting Prism-v2 extensibility to test. The standalone Silverlight Event Aggregator

posted by dschenkelmandschenkelman 243 days, 21 hours, 30 minutes ago
Friday, July 10, 2009 8:26:48 PM GMT
This is a post I have had pending for a long time. As usual it came up after I saw this question in the Composite WPF & Silverlight forums at Codeplex. The user wanted a lightweight download, and was only using the Event Aggregator from the CAL’s latest bits. I thought that this would really test Prism’s extensibility, so I created a single assembly which only contained things required by the Silverlight Event Aggregator.UPDATE: This assembly also works when using Silverlight 3 Beta version. The foll... (more)

Saturday, April 25, 2009 2:06:28 AM GMT
Some weeks ago, due to yet another question from the Composite WPF & Silverlight Codeplex forums, I found myself researching about the Silverlight 3 DataForm control. I turned to this video which allowed me to understand the basics of how it worked really fast. The user wanted to execute a command in his view model when an item of the DataForm had been edited. This post will not focus on explaining what this control allows (for this I really recommend the video), but focus on the implementation requi... (more)

Content Controls (that derives from the ContentControl class) have a Content property that you can set to almost any object. At first this could be a problem because you can set to only one object but luckily WPF includes a set of elements that help us to solve this problem.These elements are named Panels. Basically a Panel is a component that control the rendering of elements and is responsible for sizing, positioning and arranging elements. WPF provides a number of predefined Panels, each supporting a... (more)

Last week, we recorded with Matias Woloski an screencast for the Windows 7×7 campaign (Alberto Ortega blogged about the campaign), showing how to take advantage of some of the new features of Windows 7 in a Windows Presentation Foundation application. During the screencast we showed how the user experience can be enhanced by using the new capabilities of the Windows 7 Taskbar. Thanks to Damian Schenkelman who helped us with the application. (more)

How to: Populate the Module Catalog from XAML in a WPF application using the Composite Application Guidance for WPF & Silverlight (Prism-v2)

The other day I was trying to create a new WPF Prism application and I wanted to be able to load modules from XAML. To make things simpler I decided to check the documentation, but was not able to find any example on how to get this done, as the sample is for Silverlight applications. After this “revelation” I started my research on how this could be done. The most important question was what to put in the Ref attribute, which is where the module assembly is located. First, and as it is done in the Silv... (more)

C# Code Snippet to Create Commands with Attached Behaviors using Prism

posted by dschenkelmandschenkelman 211 days, 4 hours, 40 minutes ago
Wednesday, August 12, 2009 1:16:38 PM GMT
One of the most common questions we get at the Prism forums is of the type: “How do I execute my command when X happens?” (X not being a button being clicked ).  A sample of this type of question can be seen here, where a particular command needs to be executed whenever a textbox’s text changes. Our answer usually is that the user can create a command with an attached behavior. However, users are not always happy with this answer because of the complexity of having to create an attached behavior to hook... (more)

Eugenio announced yesterday the kickoff of a new guide from patterns & practices in which I’m collaborating: Claims based Authentication & Authorization Guide. This is not a new topic as Eugenio suggests in his blog, but it’s getting more and more attention because:Technology is more mature, hence it’s easier to implement claim-based identity Enterprises are failing to control the amount of different identity repositories, leading to higher provisioning/deprovisioning costs, security problems, e...

OpenID – WS-Fed Protocol Transition STS

I will go straight to the point in this post. This is a possible architecture if you want to allow OpenID authentication in a claims-aware WS-Federation-compatible web application. In this architecture there are three actors: the web application (aka the relying party) the OpenID provider (myopenid, Google, Yahoo, etc.) the “protocol broker” STS that “translates” WS-Fed to OpenID and viceversa These are the interactions that happen at login time: NOTE: the diagram shows the interactions in a con...
